Job Summary:
We’re looking for a contract Graphic Designer to support our Lifecycle Marketing team, with a focus on evergreen and flow-based creative across email and SMS.
This role is ideal for someone who is highly organized, fast-moving, collaborative, and excited by the intersection of brand storytelling and performance marketing. You’ll work closely with creative, copy, and lifecycle marketing partners to conceptualize and execute customer-facing assets that drive engagement, conversion, efficiency and long-term customer value.
This is a production-heavy role, but we’re also looking for someone with strong taste and creative instincts who can elevate the work — not just execute against templates.
What You'll Do:
- Design evergreen and automated/flow/triggered lifecycle email campaigns, such as (but not limited to):
- Promotional and seasonal messaging
- Style and room guide messaging
- Welcome series
- Abandonment flows
- Post-purchase journeys
- Winback campaigns
- VIP/anniversary journeys
- Evergreen campaign assets such as:
- Create supporting SMS visual assets (such as MMS and RCS) and lightweight motion/GIF/video treatments
- Translate brand direction into retention-focused creative systems that feel elevated while still driving performance
- Iterate quickly based on stakeholder feedback, A/B testing learnings, and business/lifecycle team needs
- Collaborate closely with copywriters, lifecycle marketers, creative leads, and project managers
- Work within existing templates and systems while also helping evolve, optimize, catalogue, and maintain them
- Maintain strong attention to detail across typography, hierarchy, cropping, layout, and responsive/mobile-first design
- Organize files and maintain clean handoff practices for developers and production partners
What You'll Need to Have:
Required:
- 3–5+ years of graphic design experience, ideally in ecommerce, DTC, fashion, lifestyle, home, beauty, or consumer brands
- Strong portfolio showcasing email, CRM/retention, SMS marketing work
- Excellent understanding of hierarchy, pacing, conversion-minded / data-driven design, and responsive layouts
- Ability to balance brand storytelling with performance objectives
- Comfortable working quickly and iterating in a high-volume environment
- Strong organizational and communication skills
- Experience designing within established systems while contributing fresh ideas
- Proficiency in Figma and Adobe Creative Suite
- Experience with motion/GIF creation is a plus
- Familiarity with lifecycle marketing platforms and email best practices is a plus
Preferred:
- Light video editing experience
- Experience with A/B testing creative
- Understanding of retention metrics and customer lifecycle strategy
- Experience working with modular email systems or component-based design
- Basic understanding of HTML email limitations and responsive behavior
- Basic understanding of SMS and different multimedia types such as MMS and RCS
Contract Details:
- Contract / freelance role
- Rate: $60-70/hr 1099
- Remote-friendly
- Approximate weekly hours: 30-40 hrs per week
- Duration: 6 months+
- Potential for extension based on business needs
To apply, please share your portfolio along with relevant examples of email, SMS, CRM, or retention-focused creative work.
